The Tool Box:  Building Better  Relationships with Teenagers
 with Family Therapist Karren Garrity

Raising some kids is a piece of cake. But many parents soon

realize that the same tactics that produced stellar results with one child may

fall flat with another.



These are normal experiences, but may leave

adults flustered and looking for new parenting tools to meet new situations. 


Those “tools” can now be found neatly wrapped up in a new book written by Kent,

CT family therapist Karren Garrity, who has published her first book, “The Tool

Box: Tricks of the Trade for Raising Teenagers. Ms. Garrity will present an

overview of her book and be available for Q& A.
